Jose Francisco Aranda (Zaragoza, 1925 - Madrid, 1989) is considered the most subversive and important film critic in 20th-Century Spain. This book compiles his more important texts, previously unpublished or published in different international magazines -such as 'Cahiers du Cinéma', 'Sight & Sound', 'Kosmorama' and 'Films and Filming'. Besides several articles on film theory, this volume includes texts on subjects as diverse as Charles Chaplin, Walter Ruttmann, Orson Welles, film and ballet, Polish avant-garde cinema and film archives. An important part of the books is dedicated to Aranda's interviews with filmmakers, such as C. Th. Dreyer, Joris Ivens, Norman McLaren and Manoel de Oliveira. Aranda is mostly known for being the biographer of Luis Buñuel and first editor of Buñuel's poetry: 'La fabulacion de la pantalla' includes several articles and an interview with the Spanish master filmmaker. Also of interest are the texts about 'el nuevo cine español' (the new Spanish cinema) of Carlos Saura, Miguel Picazo and Basilio Martín Patino -who wrote an emotive introduction to the book.
